OAh6E HhhttOA@N
LouIsvr1IH, KY, May 3.-Hon. John
g. Carlisle arrived here yesterday, to
attend the state Democratic convention.
In q lengthy interview, published by the
Courier, journal this morning, Mr.. Oar
isle says that the next house will I'M
questionably pass the bill to reduce GUS
tom duties. II will not be such bill
az reyenue.reform Democrats would like
to have, but there will be substantial
reduction. The bill reducing tariff,
he said, must be passed, however
with thu help of Republican votes. The
detection from the Democratic ranks OF
Randall and other protectionists makes 1t
impossible for Democrats to pass the
Tariff Revision bill, unless aided by reve-
nue. reformers from the Republican ranks
and these recruits, he believes, it will not
be difficult to obtain. Mr.. Carlisle thinks
there should be no repeal Of international
taxes yet in order to get through bill
reducing the tariff. Some compromises
might be made which wonld result in the
repeal of the tobacco tax.

A majority of the committee on claims
in the two houses of the General Assem-
bly, which closed its labors on Friday last
1t seems acted upon the principle that all
persons who had dealings with the State
were thieves, and in consequence thereof
they cut and hacked up the claims against
the State without regard to reason, prin-
ciple or sense. 1t mattered not to them
about justice or right. If the claimant
was a pal or political friend, his bill was
allowed, on the other hand, il he did not
train with the friends Of the members Of
the committee he was compelled TO suffer
for his political misdeeda by hav-
ing his claim cut down. We
suppose that the members of the
committee measured others by
their own high standard OF morality. They
evidently measured other peoples corn
by their own halt-bushel. As far as our
own bill is concerned we care nothing
about it. But we do speak for others.
The idea of cutting down the gas bill,
for instance, is simply ridiculous and
abominable and cannot be defended, and
should not be. We suppose that the
solons Of the committee thought the gat
meter in the state house was alive and Q

small some creatures are. Upon the
